I am trying to help a family member in Canada claim refugee status. Before we start the process should we consider retaining a lawyer? The family member is from Afghanistan and I believe they have a strong case but I am not a lawyer. Also if you think retaining a lawyer is not necessary when filing a claim is there a certain point in the process where we should retain one like the refugee hearing etc.?
Also any tips about the whole process would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
